With Everton now knowing they need a result in their final game of the season at home to Bournemouth in order to avoid the club’s first relegation in 72 years, manager Sean Dyche believes they have sent a strong message to their rivals for the drop.
Everton must still wait to see what Leicester City do at Newcastle United tonight but Leeds United’s 3-1 defeat at West Ham United on Sunday keeps them out of the bottom three as it stands going into their final game and the Foxes would have to triumph at St James' Park to put Dyche's side back in there on goal difference.
Going into the last few seconds of their last away match of the campaign against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux on Saturday, the Blues looked destined to suffer a defeat after falling behind to Hwang Hee-Chan’s goal in the 37th minute but they snatched a share of the spoils when Yerry Mina netted from close range in the last of the nine allotted minutes of stoppage time.
